[CMake] How to build INSTALL project from the command line?

[Dixon, Shane]

Aaron,
 
Visual Studios should just be a driver for "nmake", so you could use:
 
cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" ..
 
and then use:
 
nmake install
 
The catch is that you have to run all that from the Visual Studio Command Prompt so it knows where to find "nmake", "cl" and "link".

Subject: [CMake] How to build INSTALL project from the command line?



I've been trying to build the INSTALL project as part of the solution from the commandline. For example, after running: 

cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" .. 

I've tried: 

msbuild /t:INSTALL /p:Configuration=Release solution.sln 

But this builds ALL_BUILD and then tells me tells me: 

The project "INSTALL" is not selected for building in solution configuration "Release|Win32" 

Is there a way to make this work from cmake's end? I've tried every commandline swtich I can think of for msbuild but have had no luck. I can build the INSTALL.vcproj directly, but this looses the dependencies between projects, like INSTALL's dependency on ALL_BUILD. I'd like to get this done with one call if possible.
